Chapter 471: Arnautovic's counterattack

The West Ham players started into Chelsea's half, but they had just opened up some distance before they were hit on the counter-attack.

After Jones received the ball on the left side, a feint shook off the players who came forward to defend, and the defender who passed turned to chase after him, only to find that he couldn't catch Jones at all, and he could only watch the opponent go down easily.

Jones didn't make any more moves after the pass, curling the ball straight into the box, and the centre-back got in front of Giroud to head the ball out of the box, but the Chelsea player was in control from the outside.

Willian controlled the ball on the edge of the penalty area, and when he was about to shoot from distance, captain Norbl rushed from the side and tackled the ball down, and the referee's whistle sounded.

"West Ham foul!!"

'The referee gave Chelsea a free-kick, it's a dangerous position for Chelsea to go straight to the goal!'

The West Ham players lined up at the goalkeeper's command and Jones was already standing in front of the ball as he waited for the referee to blow the whistle.

The referee took a look at the situation in the penalty area and found that West Ham United was ready, he blew the whistle in his hand directly, and Jones directly ran a few steps and shot with his feet!

The five players lined up in the wall started to jump, and they jumped as high as they could, but the ball still went over their heads and headed straight for the right post!

Joe Hart flew to make a save but couldn't get it back, the ball slicing past the tips of his fingers and into the net.

"Nice direct free-kick! The ball is in!! Jones' direct free-kick scores!! ”

After defending for 30 minutes, he finally let the opponent score, Arnautovic looked helpless, he is indeed very good, no matter how hard I try, I can't escape the fate of losing this game?

The fighting spirit he had finally mustered was also hit by a goal from Jones.

Jones didn't celebrate the goal much, and in his opinion, it was a well-deserved one, and after Jones and his teammates high-fived each other in celebration, they dispersed.

"Hah! I'm right, it's easy for Chelsea to score goals, after all, there is a big difference in quality between the two teams!

The fact that West Ham were able to hold on for 30 minutes before conceding was beyond my expectations. 'The Chelsea commentator seemed happy.

'It's a shame that if West Ham could go into the break with a 0-0 scoreline, maybe there would have been more variables in the second half!' The football commentator then lamented.

'Now that West Ham have conceded a goal and are behind Chelsea, there's no point in holding on to it, so will they press and play against Chelsea?

However, if they press up, there will be too much space left for Chelsea, but they don't have many options to choose from when they concede first. ”

Arnautovic stared at the Chelsea players who were running back in celebration of the goal, and he was very angry, what did he work so hard for? Is it just that you have no way to fight back in such a game and are won?

"I'm not reconciled! I'm not going to throw in the towel! Arnautovic regained his confidence at this point.

Arnautovic was determined to do something about it, and he ran next to Fernandes: "Wait a moment and we'll serve, and the ball will be at our feet.

I'll run forward as soon as I kick off, you go to the back court to catch the ball, you see my position pass! ”

"Okay, let's have a blast!!" Fernandez understood what Arnautovic meant, and he was the only one in the team who came to the long-distance pass, and the two were sure that the two had already discussed it before the game.

The two of them nodded, and Mario said: "Tovic, after kick-off, you are the only one who will move forward, and I will distract Chelsea's defence!" ”

The game on the field has restarted. Arnautovic gave the ball to Mario, turned and ran forward, and Mario passed the ball to the captain behind him, Nobriel, and stepped forward.

After serving, Jones pounced quickly and the ball was passed the ball as soon as it was passed and the rest of the Chelsea players left their positions and pounced on West Ham United, with the exception of centre-backs Andreas Christensen and Cesar Azpilicueta.

Seeing the Chelsea players lunging towards him, Noble spun around and scrambled to pass the ball to the retreating Fernandes.

Fernandes glanced up at Arnautovic's position, by which point Arnautovic had run to the back of the Chelsea field, with Mario behind him, and only two Azpilicueta and Andreas Christensen were left in defence!

This is an opportunity for them!!

Fernandes didn't stop the ball and swung it a little down the middle of the ball against the oncoming ball, opting for a difficult flat volley.

Such a pass is not too high in the air, but it is fast and very penetrating, which is also very demanding of footwork.

The ball flew straight through the air and penetrated the midfield at such a fast speed that most of the Chelsea players had already crossed the half, with only two defenders left at the back!

Arnautovic turned with his back to the Chelsea goal and pressed Andreas Christensen behind him.

Christensen was next to Arnautovic, and he didn't dare to fall to the ground to bet on the referee to blow for a foul, because Arnautovic didn't make any extra moves, and if he fell to the ground, the referee might think he had faked a fall.

He could only struggle to hold off Arnautovic and fight for a favorable position as much as possible, and now Arnautovic had his back to the goal and did not directly threaten his own goal.

Mario, on the other hand, has been entangled by Azpilicueta and has no chance.

Arnautovic leaned on Christensen, staring at the ball that was about to fall, and suddenly took a step forward, and Christensen, who was originally behind him, suddenly slipped and did not have time to step forward to defend.

I saw Arnautovic jumping up against the football, the ball was moving forward very fast, he gently pushed the football in the air, and after the football was topped, there was a sudden acceleration and a slight change of direction.

Goalkeeper Willy Caballero made a save, but it was too late and the ball flew over his head and into the net from the right corner of the goal!!

Thousands of West Ham fans who came from afar were stunned, our team had equalized so quickly?!

The first to cheer was David Moyes, who rushed to the sidelines, flapping his fists and running back and forth to celebrate Arnautovic's goal!

The West Ham commentator shouted excitedly: "The ball went in, Chelsea led for only 3 minutes, and the score was equalized by West Ham United!" ”

Arnautovic landed and watched the ball fly into the net, then he turned and ran in the direction of the visiting fans to celebrate the goal.

Jack Cottrell, who was closest to him, pounced on his back and Arnautovic was instantly surrounded by West Ham players.

"Who said we would lose!"

He shouted: "Look at this goal, what if they are not undefeated? It's not like we've scored yet!

If we can get into one, we can get in the second! Didn't he know our names! Let's let him know! ”

The goal also reinvigorated their courage and fighting spirit.
